Thanks Glenn, my keyboard was set to U.S.
My original Bookworm system had Caja and mate-control-center installed.
The fact that the upgrade seemed to leave them out causes accessibility
problems. Hopefully the Trixie/Debian 13 installer will not leave these
out. Another problem seems to be that the Screenreader checkbox turns
itself off as soon as you check it. This is in the menu at the login
screen you get by pressing F10.
Debian 13 is planned for release this summer, but I don't think there is
a test installer yet.

Your keyboard may not be set to American, if you used the right control and
alt.
UK keyboards don't typically use the right control key.
Although it is awkward, try the left control alt and D.

When I do that it says Bottom Panel.

Subject: Debian testing can't tab to desktop?
Hello, I upgraded a Mate Bookworm plus Backports to Debian Testing.
When I press alt-control-tab, I cycle between the Top Panel and Bottom
Panel, but not the desktop. On the Bottom Panel is a button that says
Show Desktop, I press space on that, but it doesn't make any
difference. Any idea how to bring back the desktop?
